The detonation of the glorious Fourth of July may be history but the memory lingers on in burned fingers, maged automobiles, frayed tempers. And so vivid the recollection among many of the echo already has resounded in d is citizens that its official quarters Mayor Goldstein broached the subject at the City Council meeting last night with the assertion that it was the worst celebration in point of danger| from fireworks that the city had ever had and| suggested immediate steps be taken toward a remedy | for next year. He won unanimous support of the| Council members and as a result the Council plans to amend the present city ordinance limiting the sale of fireworks to July 3 and 4 and strictly en- forcing the ordinance against shooting any firecrack- ers or other fireworks within the city limits. As was brought out by the Council members, fire- works were shot off with abandon throughout the city and especially on the downtown streets at all hours the day and night and under the feet of pedestrians. and three automobiles were burned as a result of the careless use of firecrackers, It is only a kind Providence which supplied lots of rain in recent weeks that kept down fires. Celebrating the Fourth of July with fireworks is a fine tradition but as most cities have found the practice must be limited to certain areas It is just as sensible to shoot off fireworks on the main thoroughfares of city where people move about and buildings are in close proximity as it would be to allow the free use of dynamite and nitro-glycerin in the same area. Firecrackers, small or big, are things that should be handled with a degree of intelligence. When not properly used they can endanger life and limb as well as being one of the greatest fire hazards. It may be that outside the city limits is the proper place but surely the main streets of the city should be kept free of such hazard even if the children in the residential district are allowed a little freedom with their firecrackers. of out a While it is anticipated that the total pack in the Bristol Bay area this season will not exceed two hundred thousand cases as a result of the late opening of the fishing season there, the news of the favorable action announced by Secretary Roper is an especial gratifying decision to residents of that area as well as all Alaska. Opening the Fourth, the run does not usually last later than the 22d or 23d of this month, giving about three weeks fishing. This season the area being closed early as a protection against depletion, time will not allow now under the revised regulations to bring fishermen from the oustide, As a result the residents of the area will profit and as it is virtually their only means of making a livelihood it means they will be in better shape to care for themselves during the winter months. As Gov. Troy commented when word came of the new order, “it will immediately relieve unemploy- ment in that area and permit fishermen and workers to get their regular summer earnings, which con- tribute largely to their support during the winter.” Effort in behalf of the residents to get an opening this year was started as early as the last legislative session when request was made to open the season to limited pack and allow only residents of the district to fish. While nothing came of it at the time, it is evident that authorities in Wash- ingon have not overlooked the importance of the matter as their action reveals. Britsol Bay may not pay half the pack tax of the Territory as it did last year but it probably will pack sufficient to give the fishermenn in the area something besides empty larders this fall. Mr. Hoover's “Foes.” (New York Times.) and labor-saving classification of Re- has been getting itself established in ‘Washington. It is also taken up, as if it were now a part of our political vocabulary, in dispatches from the Grass Rooters at Springfield, Ill. Party factions are spoken of as for or against Mr. Hoover, and resolutions are either adopted or defeated to serve the purposes of Mr. Hoover's “foes” Why should there be such a body of men? They are not personal enemies of the ex-President. It is not & question of liking or disliking him. But the as- sumption is that he is beginning a campaign for renomination next year, and that those who believe he could not be nominated, or if nominated elected, are supposed to take a hostile attitude toward him. If they do not favor his supposed political ambi- tions, they must be foes of his, even if they are in his own household. In aetual fact, there is no proof that Mr. Hoover is seeking, or even desires, another term in the Presidency. He has made no announcement which indicates that. For nearly a year after leaving the White House he kept almost absolutely silent on public questions.

In view of the exceedingly limited authority that will be at is command, the temporary administrative structure just set up by the President for the NRZ is somewhat elaborate. It would seem that its initial and most worthy task might be demobilization of the extensive personnel of the old and now expired NRA, which the new administrative officials have been ordered to reduce “as rapidly as possible.” Yet it is evident that the desire is to retain, in name and semblance, just as much of the NRA as can be carried over until next April, until per- chance there might be effected a restoration of the substance of the regime that has been both dis- credited and invalidated. So the administrative set-up now effected looks beyond the announced twofold purpose of lending co-operation to industry in such voluntary agree-| ments as it may legally undertake and of keeping a statistical record of developments. Its chief func- tion may become agitation for the granting of authority that is at present lacking. In the mean- time, industry can go ahead and, by assuming re- sponsibilities that it should exercise, provide the one answer to any attempt to bring back a hurtful and undesirable system of control. | The Soldier and the State. (New York Herald Tribune.) There was more than the conventional platitude in the President’s admirable address to the West Point graduates whom he commissioned on Wednes- | day. In not every nation today, untofl.unahly,: could the Chief Executive honestly dispatch young| army officers on their career with the warning that| “the greatest need of the world is permanent peace’ based on mutual understanding and mutual regard,” or sincerely advise them to “strive at all times to promote friendship and to discourage suspicion; to teach respect for the rights of others and to decryf aggression; to oppose intolerance with a spirit of| mutual helpfulness.” It is not everywhere that| these would be regarded as the appropriate func- tions of a military service. They are so in the United States. In placing the emphasis where he did' the President felicitously expressed the way in which the bulk of Americans like to think of their army and summoned the young officers to a role! which most of their countrymen would earnestly wish them to discharge, It is not so easy a role as it seems to be, be- | cause to discharge it calls for breadth and intelli-| gence as well as good will. Elsewhere in his address | the President struck another note a little unusuall upon occasions of this kind. It is essential, he| suggested, that those who take up the peculiarly | specialized profession of arms “must eternally keep before their eyes the practical relationship of their own profession to the rights, hopes and the needs of the whole body of citizens who make up the nation.” Armies and navies have always been | more than mere fighting machines. They are also social institutions which in different times and different countries have often profoundly affected | the societies around them in many other ways than | simply by the winning or losing of battles. Primar- ily, military considerations are bound to influence | many peace-time decisions of ates, and a people | may on occasion be more vitally affected by mel wisdom of its military leaders in peace than by their efficiency in war. { In the highly armed and bellicose world of today the soldier seems destined to an influence in public affairs greater, if anything, than the past. It imposes upon him a corresponding edter breadlh: of view and sense of proportion. Whether he hke.!‘ it or not, he has to be something of g statesman as well as a soldier if he is to serve his country well—just as economists, jurists, political leaders or business men are finding themselves compelied to be statesmen too. That being so, there is an urgent obligation upon the young soldier to be sure that lms statesmanship is sound, time of in - Graves, Vern Mullen, May Otteson, Murie!
